I've heard all the "you don't need a special day to love someone" arguments and the bitter comments about the commercialism of the holiday, but i think having a special day set apart is important. How many hearts did you end up making? I love Valentines Day as well.

I am glad you feel better!! I am also sorry it took so long to respond to you...I havent logged in in quite a while. :/ I have so struggled with where this blog is supposed to go..or if it is supposed to go at all. After reading this post (that I wrote several years ago) the emotion is still fresh as I go over it. i still struggle and now I live in an extremely fundamentalist community that makes it even tougher to feel ok in your own skin. This is an on-going challenge for me, but I am finding his way..with HIS help, we will all win, Dear Rose. :) Rose, thank you so much for responding. I am glad you feel better!!

I"m old school, trying new things this year. I can relate to everything you said! I feel all of what you expressed and more. The dresses, the cliques, wanting to totally be myself, needing to belong, and having those moments to let loose. This morning I was looking for a women's group online to connect with to chase some of those blues away but I was led by God to your blog and I feel so much better. I don't understand why it's such a hard fight... but with HIS help I'll win. Thank you for your honesty! This is my 1st time reading and answering a blog. I”m old school, trying new things this year.

I don't know how I do it but they are so useful, I can always find something to put in them. I'm sure you will be able to use them all for something. I get through so many jars too.

It was SO YUMMY. Highly recommend the TJ's chickens!!! Wanda, the straps are short...but it is super cute. I dont mind the short straps but can see how they would be annoying. ended up making the chicken yesterday because Art brought home some leftover panera from their catered office party.

It ended up going home with Courtney because, cute as it is, the straps are shorter than I like for grocery bags. I know, picky!! The chicken and potatos sounds so good. There was a market near my mom that sold those tiny chickens and they were so good! Your shopping trip sounds a lot like mine used to be in Panama...time consuming and lots of coolers!!

It even looks good just as a garden piece. That chicken tractor sure looks awesomely cute and chic, not to mention the enginuity behind the design. It even looks good just as a garden piece.
